This site also has so many great hand print craft ideas. I LOVE the calendar idea.  Here are a few more (click here.)

Here is my favorite poem!  Add this poem, a hand print and a frame from the dollar store!

 Sometimes I might upset you

Because I am so small

And always leave my fingerprints

on furniture and walls.

But everyday I grow a bit

And soon I'll be so tall

That all those little fingerprints

Will be so hard to recall.

So here's a special handprint

Just so that you can say

This is how my fingers looked

When I placed them here today

Handprint Plaque

I print out this poem on white paper.

Paint the child's hand with black tempera paint, and make a print on white construction paper.

On a colored sheet of paper, place the hand on one half and the poem on the other.

Laminate or place into a (dollar store) document frame.

Create wrapping paper.

Sometimes you get discouraged

Because I am so small

And always leave my fingerprints

On furniture and walls

But every day I'm growing --

I'll be grown some day

And all those tiny hand-prints

Will surely fade away

So here's a little hand-print

Just so you can recall

Exactly how my fingers looked

When I was very small

Happy Mother’s Day 2010
